This invention relates to radio receiving apparatus and has specialreference to a skill operated means for closing radio circuits.

One object of the invention is to provide a 5 novel combination of radioreceiver and skill operated means for closing the circuits of suchreceiver.

A second important object of the invention is to provide, in connectionwith the tuning condenser of a radio receiving set, skill operated meanscontrolling the setting of such set.

A third object of the invention is to provide a novel circuit closingarrangement for radio circuits, the arrangement being operated by thedropping of movable playing pieces into certain pockets.

A fourth object of the invention is to provide, in such apparatus,electrically controlled means for ejecting a playing piece from a pocketso that it may move to the next pocket.

A fifth object of the invention is to provide novel means whereby aradio receiving set may have its tuning condenser actuated to stop atany desired station receiving position.

A sixth important object of the invention is to provide novel circuitarrangements for such apparatus.

With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists ingeneral of certain novel details of construction and combinations ofparts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanyingdrawings and particularly pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawings like characters of reference indicate likeparts in the several views, and:

Figure 1 is a plan view to small scale of a skill operated device forclosing circuits in a radio receiving apparatus.

Figure 2 is an enlarged plan view of the pocket portion of the deviceshown in Figure 1.

Figure 3 is a section on the line 33 of Figure 2.

Figure 4 is an enlarged detail section on the line 4-4 of Figure 3.

Figure 5 is a detail section on the line 5-5 of Figure 3.

Figure 6 is a detail section on the line 65 of Figure 3.

Figure 7 is a diagram showing the wiring of the invention.

In illustrating the invention it has been shown in connection with agame of skill of the type of a bagatelle board, this being a boardinclined upwardly from the front or players station. It is,

however, to be understood that the invention is not limited to thisparticular game of skill and that the game here shown and described asan example is to be taken as typical of any game of skill having aseries of pockets into which playing members such as balls, blocks,disks or the like are driven by the skill of the player.

Accordingly, whenever game board is mentioned hereafter it is to beunderstood in the broad typical sense above stated. Also, forconvenience, the playing members will be hereinafter referred to asballs and this term is to be understood as not only including balls butincluding in addition any form of playing member adapted to be receivedin a pocket.

In the particular form of game board here shown there is provided atable In having a depressed well ll at its forward end. Just forward ofthis well there is a row of pockets l2 separated from the well by a walll3. Around this table extends a cushion wall I4 which is semicircular atits forward end. Partitions l5 extend rearwardly on the table from thespaces between the pockets and terminate forwardly behind of the line ofpockets and rearwardly on a transverse line spaced forwardly from thecenter of the semi-circular portion of the wall. Other similarpartitions l6 divide the pocket space from the side walls of the tableand provide a playing chute H and a return chute la. The main part ofthe table l inclines upwardly from front to rear and the part containingthe pockets l2 inclines downwardly from right to left as in Figure 3. Aplunger l9 serves to actuate a ball 20 and the device is provided withany suitable form of coin control as indicated at 2|. It is to beobserved that there are eight runways formed by the partitions l and I6but there are only seven pockets I2, the runway between pockets 5 and B(as indicated in Figures 1, 2, and 7) being closed as at 22.

With such a device as this a ball 20 is placed in position to be struckby the plunger or cue l9. When so struck with the proper degree of forcethe ball will move up the chute I1, move to the left after leaving thechute l1 and roll back into the desired runway. If, on the contrary, theproper degree of force is not used the ball will either pass into someother runway than that desired or will return to the well II down thechute l8. A ball entering a runway will roll forward and drop in thepocket at the forward end of that runway unless the pocket has beenfilled. This is an ordinary arrangement for such boards.

There will now be considered the specific features of such a board whichenter into this invention.

Referring to Figure 7, there is provided a battery 23 from which extendsthe wires 24 and 25. In pocket |2 No. 1 there is a circuit closer 26which is normally open but is closed by the dropping of a ball into saidpocket. As here shown, each of the pockets I2 is of a diameter toclosely fit the balls used and is of a depth of about one-half itsdiameter. The circuit closer 26 includes an arcuate spring member 21 oneend of which fits in an annular rabbet 28'at the upper end of thepocket. The other end, of, the spring 21 normally projects into thepocket space proper but, upon the seating of a ball in this pocket, ispushed outwardly into the rabbet and engages a fixed contact 29 sunk inthe wall of the rabbet. Each of these contacts is provided with an car36 flush with the table H1 and which has a countersunk screw 3| (seeFigure 4) extending down into a recess 32. On the lower end of thisscrew is a nut 32 for securing a lead wire 33, the table .beingchanneled as at 34' to accommodate this lead wire. Similarly arrangedcircuit closers will be found in pockets I2 Nos. 3, 4, 6, and 7 butthese will not be specifically described or have reference charactersapplied to their several parts, the foregoing being deemed sufficientfor an understanding of all like circuit closers. In each of pockets l2Nos. 2 and 5 there is provided a bottom 35' actuated by a solenoid 36'torise and eject a ball held therein, the bottom being normally loweredto enable a ball to seat in such pocket. The circuit breaker isconnected by wire 33. with one terminal of the solenoid of pocket No. 2and by a branch 31 to one terminal of the solenoid of pocket No. 5, thetwo solenoids being thus connected in multiple, to one side of thecircuit breaker. A wire 38' connects the other side of the solenoid tothe wire 24. The remaining terminals of the, solenoids 36 are con.-nected by wires 39 to the wire 25. Also, branch wires 46 connect a bell4| across the wires 31 and 25.

Power leads or wires. 42 and 43 are provided and in each of pockets Nos-3, 4, 6', and 7 there is provided a normally open circuit. closer, 44one side of which is connected. tothe wire 43 by a wire 45 while theother side of the, circuit closer is connected. by a wire 46 through alamp 41 to the wirev 42. Thus, whenever a ball drops in one of thesepockets a lamp circuit is closed and the corresponding lamp lights. Awire 48 leads from the wire 42 to the speaker 49 and a power inputterminal of a radio receiving set indicated in general at 56 but nothaving its internal circuits shown since these do not enter into thepresent invention.

The other power terminal of the set is connected by branch wires 5| toone side of each of two circuit closers 52. respectively mounted in thepockets l2 Nos. 3. and 6. The other sides of these circuit closers. areconnected by wires 53 with the, wire 43.. Thus if a ball drops in eitherpocket 3. or pocket 6 the power circuit of the set is closed. The setalso. has'feed wires 54 for the filament circuit.

The movable plates of the tuning condenser of the set 50 are shownat 55as outside the set for convenience in illustrating the device but theyare actually in the casing of the set. These plates are mounted on ashaft 56 and are urged to rotate in a clockwise direction by a spring51. Normally the plates are held in the inactive position shown by alever 56 fixed on the shaft 56 and a latch 58 which forms the armatureof a magnet 59 and is moved to release the plates upon energization ofthe magnet. Similarly, latches 66 and 6| controlled by the magnets 62and 63 are located to catch and retain the lever 56 at difierent pointsin the path of the movement of the plates, a stop 64 being provided tolimit their movement. Wires 65 connect the wire 25 to one terminal ofeach of the magnets. In pocket l2, No. 4 is a normally opencircuitcloser 66 having one side connected by a wire 61 to the magnet 59and its other side connected by a wire- 68 to the wire 24. Thus when aball drops in pocket No. 4 a circuit through the magnet 59 isestablished and the plates released to turn and be engaged by the latch66. Between the pockets Nos. 5 and 6 there is a normally open circuitcloser actuated to close by the passage of a ball from pocket No. 5 topocket No. 6. This circuit closer consists of a pair of fixed contacts69 and a movable contact 16. One of the contacts 69 is connected by awire 1| with the wire 61' and thus to magnet 59. The other contact 69 isconnected by a wire 12 with the magnet 62. The contact 16 is connectedby a wire 13 with the wire 24. Thus when the contact 10 closes on thecontacts 69 both magnets 59 and 62 are energized and the plates 55 moveto engagement by the latch 6|. In the pocket No. 7 is a normally opencircuit closer 14 having one side connected by a wire 15 with the magnet63 and its other side connected by a wire 16 with the wire 24. Thus,

when a ball drops in pocket No. 7 the third latch, 5

6|, is released and the plates drop to engage stop 64 if they have beenengaged by latch 6|.

Beneath the pockets is a slide 11 supported on guides 18 and providedwith openings 19 normally out of registry with the pockets and thusacting to retain balls therein. This slide is movable, in theusualmanner, by the coin control tobring the openings 19 into registry withthe pockets Nos. 1, 3, 4, 6, and 7 to discharge the balls held therein.At the same time provision is made to close the solenoid circuits sothat any balls in pockets Nos. 2 and 5 will be ejected and dischargedthrough pockets 3 and 6. To this end, the table supports a bracket 86carrying a pair of contactsv 8| and the slide carries a bridging contact82 which,

when the slide moves to open the pockets, contacts with the contacts 8|.One contact 8| is connected by a wire 83, with the wire 33 and the othercontact 8| is connected by a Wire 84 with the wire 24 so that moving theslide to open the pockets energizes the solenoids 36.

The contact 16 is in the form of a spring which (Figures 2 and 5)supports a trap door 85 arranged between guides 86 in an opening 81 inthe I table. The contacts 69 are fixed to a wall of this recess so thatthe Weight of a ballrolling from pocket No. 5 to pocket No. 6 willdepress the trap door and bring contact 10 into bridging contact withcontacts 69.

In order to provide means to determine whether The contact 88 isconnected 1 wire 96 through a lamp 9'! to the wire 42. Thus. when thetable is tilted the ball falls oil the cup and circuit, is establishedthrough the lamp 91, which may be red, and indicates that the table hasbeen tilted.

An arm 98 forms means for resetting the plates 55.

To operate the device it is necessary that there be a ball in at leastone of the pockets Nos. 3 and 6 and that the latch 58 be released by aball in pocket No. 4 or a ball rolling across the trap door 85.

Various methods may be used to accomplish this result. For instance, aball may be shot to drop in pocket No. 2 or pocket No. 5. If this isdone a ball must be shot to drop in pocket No. 1 and thus close thesolenoid circuit to eject the ball or balls from pockets Nos. 2 and 5.If there is a ball in pocket No. 2 it will move to pocket No. 3 andestablish the power circuit. If it is desired that the plates assumeposition of engagement by latch a ball must now be shot to fall inpocket No. 4. If, however, it is desired that the plates assume theirsecond active position a ball must be shot to pocket No. 5 which, beingclosed by the ball in pocket No. 1 will cause the ball to roll over thetrap door and thus move both latches 58 and 60 to release position sothat the plates will be stopped by latch GI. A ball shot in pocket No.'7 will release this latch GI and permit the plates 55 to assume theirthird active position. Obviously, the three active positions of theplates are arranged to accomplish correct tuning for three differenttransmitting stations.

Many other combinations and sequences in the closing of the circuits maybe obtained but the foregoing will afford a guide as to the manner ofusing the invention.

There has thus been provided a novel and eiiicient device of the kinddescribed and for the purpose specified.

It is obvious that many changes may be made in the form and constructionof the invention without departing from the material principlesinvolved.
